I was in my apartment on a Tuesday afternoon thinking of the best way to find Edward and have my revenge over the chaos he caused at the wedding. Wendy had called me moments after they arrived at the hospital. She told me the hospital Jessica was taken to and that she's still unconscious. I starred at my hand gun that was on the table and evil thoughts began to creep into my mind. I already had a bottle of liquor in my hand. I sat on an old sofa chair in my parlor and drank the liquor from the bottle. I starred at the television and a news report about the bombing at the wedding was displayed. "Why are all these things happening?", I asked as I rubbed my hair. I picked up my phone to call Wendy again. I changed my mind as soon as her number was displayed on my phone screen. "I need to settle everything before I see her again. I don't want any close person getting hurt again. My enemies my use her to get to me. Edward had tried that once, but it didn't work out for him", I thought. My phone rang in my hand and I checked the caller to find out it was Mr. Zhang. At first, I didn't answer the call but after seeing the repeated calls, I decided to answer. "Henry, there's problem right now", Mr. Zhang said sounding scared. "What's wrong sir?", I asked. "It's my daughter. She has been kidnapped at the airport. She's my only daughter please you have to help me", Mr. Zhang said. "I'm headed to your place right now", I said and ended the call. I checked my phone for time and it was twenty minutes past the hour of two. I put on my leather jacket immediately, hid my two hand guns behind my trouser. I finished off the remaining liquor in the bottle and walked out. I entered my car and drove off to Mr. Zhang's mansion. I stopped at the gate when I saw Mr. Zhang's assistant standing outside. It looked like he has been waiting for me. He walked to my car and opened the door for me. "Master has been waiting for you. You need to hurry", He said as he turned to leave. I stepped out quickly and followed him. We arrived in a beautiful garden and I saw Mr. Zhang in a black suit walking around the garden lost in thought. "Mr. Zhang!", I called trying to bring back his attention. "It's nice to see you sir". "Someone has my daughter Henry", Mr. Zhang said as he walked closer to me. "She went on a vacation in China. She was meant to come home two days ago. When she finally arrived at the airport in Georgia, she was kidnapped". "How did you know she was kidnapped?", I asked. "They called me and requested for $20M or else they will bring back my daughter to me dead. They said every moment I waste they will add a million dollar to the money", Mr. Zhang said. "Do you know anyone who might have done this?", I asked. "I absolutely have no idea. I never knew that people knew my daughter. I try as much as possible to keep my relationship with her as her father private. I know the kind of enemies surrounding me", Mr. Zhang said "I only know that Tina my daughter has a boyfriend, an American. He goes by the name Ben. He lives at Kingston street. Maybe he can be of use to you". "I'll bring back your daughter safely. Just leave this to me", I said with assurance. "I have something you might need. Please come", Mr. Zhang said. I followed Mr. Zhang to a furnished room. He walked up to the door and used his fingerprint to open it. I watched as the walls formed a barricade and opened, displaying a hidden chamber. I looked inside, and I saw guns and other weapons of all kinds arranged inside that chamber. "What are you doing with all these things?", I asked. "Anything can happen in this place and it is my duty to protect my family", Mr. Zhang said with seriousness. "I promised my wife before she died that I'll protect our daughter. Now, that time has come, and I am counting on you to help me". I saw a framed photo of a Chinese woman carrying a little girl in her arms. "I'm guessing this is your wife", I said as I picked up the photo to take a closer look. "Yes, that's her. She died of a brain tumor about 10 years ago", Mr. Zhang said. "That's a pity. I'm sorry", I said looking away. "Pick anything you think you'll need. If you want another car, I have more in the garage. Just do this thing for me", Mr. Zhang pleaded. I picked up everything I needed including some smoke grenades, hand grenades and a sharp combat knife. I also added some guns to the collection and some extra ammo as well. Mr. Zhang left and returned with a black leather bag and asked I put everything I selected inside the bag. I put everything inside and turned to walk out. "I've called my assistant. He's waiting for you at the garage. He'll show you a new car you'll go with", Mr. Zhang said. "Mr. Zhang, when you receive another call from them, don't fail to tell me. They asked you to arrange money, but they haven't said where you'll meet them", I said and left. I found Mr. Zhang's assistant outside and he handed me a car key. He pointed at a white range rover and left. I put the black bag at the back of the car and drove out of the mansion. I soon reached Kingston street, the place Mr. Zhang told me I would find Ben. I drove slowly while observing the neighborhood and the people living in it. It was just full of thugs and drug addicts. I saw some guys smoking weed and when they heard the police siren, they would sneak off. I stopped my car and hopped down. I saw a young guy seated on a bench and watching a group of other guys playing basketball. I sat beside him and watched for a while before speaking up. "Do you know Ben?", I asked. The guy starred at me for a while and asked, "Why are you looking for him?". "Let's say he needs to answer some questions for me. So, where is he?", I asked again. The guy pointed at a tall guy playing basketball. "The tall dude with red shorts. That's Ben", The guy replied. I took out a hundred dollar and gave it to him. I stood up and walked up to the person in red shorts. "Excuse me!", I said to him. "What do you want?", Ben asked. "I need to talk to you", I said. "Talk to me? What are you? Cop? FBI?", Ben asked still interested in the ongoing game. I walked close enough to Ben, held his arm and dragged him out of the basketball court. "What do you want from me. Stop dragging me like that", Ben shouted trying to knock my hand off. "Only if you know the type of shit you're into you'll be begging for your life right now", I said. "Who is Tina?". "I don't know what you're talking about man. Just leave me let me be", Ben said and tried to walk away. I quickly took out my silenced hand gun and pointed it at him. "I can end your life here right now and walk away and nobody will ever find me. I asked you a question and you're walking away from me", I shouted. "I'm sorry", Ben replied sounding scared. "You're dating the daughter of a rich and notorious billionaire Mr. Zhang and now his daughter has gone missing", I said. "Please I know nothing. I had no idea she's missing", Ben shouted. "That's a lie boy. You're the only person that should know her whereabouts. Did she tell you about her travel to China?", I asked. "No!", Ben replied. I cocked my gun and he began to beg. "Please don't shoot. She told me she would be travelling to China about 3 weeks ago. That was the last time we saw each other", Ben said. "And how come unknown men kidnapped her like they knew when she would be coming back. She was abducted at the airport. Someone told them something. Now who is that person?", I asked grabbing Ben. "Two men came to my house few days later. They beat me up until I told them everything I knew about Tina", Ben said. "Who are those men?", I asked. "I have no idea who they are. Please don't kill me. I'm sorry that this happened to Tina but please don't kill me", Ben begged. "Stay away from that girl or you'll be the next person to get abducted and believe me when you do, you'll never be found by anyone", I said and left Ben alone. I walked quickly back to my car and my phone rang. It was Mr. Zhang calling. "I know the people that have my daughter", Mr. Zhang said as I answered the call. "It's Mr. Gante. He's the one that abducted my daughter and now he has increased the ransom money to $23M. He said if he doesn't get the money in the next 24 hours, Tina will be sent back as a corpse". "Has he set up a meeting point?", I asked. "Yes, he said it's at an uncompleted building. He ordered me to come alone", Mr. Zhang replied. "Are you going to go there alone?", I asked. "No! I'll be headed there in few minutes. I hope to see you there, Henry", Mr. Zhang said and ended the call. "There was only one building in Atlanta that is still undergoing construction now. That should be the one Mr. Gante is talking about", I said to myself. I reversed the car and headed to the construction site. I parked few blocks away from the site when I reached there. I climbed the highest floor in the uncompleted building and set up the sniper rifle I picked up from Mr. Zhang's place. I laid low for few minutes until I saw some black Mercedes Benz cars approaching the site. I observed closely as everybody began to step out of the car one by one. I also saw Tina step out of the car as well, but her mouth was gagged, and her hands tied behind her back. Moments later, a black range rover car showed up which is Mr. Zhang's car. The driver stepped out and opened the door to the back seat and Mr. Zhang walked out of the car in a white suit. "Do you have the money?", One of Mr. Gante's boys asked, the one holding Tina. "I have everything you asked for", Mr. Zhang replied. Tina tried calling out to her father but the gag in her mouth won't let her say anything audible. "Let my daughter go and I'll hand over the money to you", Mr. Zhang said. 'Why don't you let us see the money first and we'll decide if she leaves here or not", Mr. Zhang gave his driver a sign and he ran to the back of the car and began to take out some bags. He took the bags about 6 in number and dropped it before Mr. Gante's boys. "Where's the person that sent you?", Mr. Zhang asked. "You mean Mr. Gante? He didn't want to show up. He just wanted what belongs to him", The guy said. I watched as the guy opened the bags one by one to confirm if it was truly money that was inside. He gave a sign to the rest of the men with him and they all took out their hand guns. "But this wasn't the negotiation", Mr. Zhang said with his hands in the air. "The negotiation has changed. We received a new order", The guy said. I sensed that they were about to kill Mr. Zhang and I began to take them out from my position. I first took out the person with Tina. Tina ran off immediately the man dropped dead. "It's a trap", One of the men shouted and everybody began to shoot at Mr. Zhang. Soon, two black BMW cars stopped behind the range rover car and began to return fire towards Mr. Gante's men. I helped them with my sniper rifle. One of Mr. Gante's men ran back into the Mercedes Benz car he came with and tried to run away. He reversed the car and drove quickly out of the building site. I picked up my sniper rifle and pursued the car. I quickly climbed several structures to get a clear view of the retreating vehicle. I aimed my rifle at the back left rear tyre of the car and fired a shot. The bullet hit the tyre and forced the car to move sluggishly. I shot the other tyre at the right and that made the car to flip and tumble repeatedly. When the car finally stopped tumbling, I observed it through the sniper scope. The man inside was still alive but seriously injured. "You won't be going back to where you came from", I said to myself. I saw some people gathered around looking for how to help the man, but I didn't want that to happen. I spotted the car's fuel tank and shot it. The car exploded immediately and went in flames. I climbed down from the building and saw Tina with Mr. Zhang. She returned after she ran away from the scene. "I'm glad your daughter's okay Mr. Zhang. It was my honor to help you out", I said. "Thank you very much Henry. I honestly don't know what would have happened to Tina if not for you", Mr. Zhang said. I watched Mr. Zhang as he called one of his boys that arrived later and told him something in Chinese. The man left and returned with a big bag and handed it over to me. I grabbed the bag and opened it and I saw a huge amount of money inside. "That's about $4M. I want you to have it and don't tell me no", Mr. Zhang said. I grabbed the bag and walked to Mr. Zhang. "I'll be seeing you later sir", I said and turned my back and headed for my car.
